Hello 2021 + Mod Updates
Added 2021-01-01 17:32:04 +0000 UTCHello everyone and thanks for being here!
Here are some notes on recent mod updates.
_____________________________________________________
- Open Love Life - re-Update to v1.1
- Re-uploading now that the mysterious LE some people got at loading has been eradicated. This update adds 2 relationship types: exclusive couples of 3, and partner-approved side lover.
_____________________________________________
- ROAD TO ROMANCE
- Added interaction 'Make out for a While" starting at skill level 5. The same as the "Make out" interaction in game, but longer. More little 'additions' like this to be expected soon.
- Toned down autonomy on interactions that trigger the affectionate mood; also made moodlets not appear each time from these interactions, but more occasionally.
- A few Performance Improvements :)
- Removed negative moodlets for teens that would show up due to 'low skill' even though teens don't have access to the Romance skill. They're still waiting for their own Romance Skill module, which will come! So many mods to make / update, and so little time! Days should be 48 hours!
___________________________________________
- No Chatter Clutter & Less Front Page Clutter
Added a few more items in the "Less Front Page Clutter" side of things.
__________________________________________
- MOOD PACK MOD
- Added 4 moods
- Added a first batch of moodlets to the 'Optional: Game Moodlet Mood Replacement' module.
- Improved mood testing process for creators.
_________________________________________
- WooHoo Wellness & Pregnancy Overhaul, v2.15 (early release)
January 3rd: Bug Fixes
December 31:
- Improved and expanded the cheating sentiment system of the cheating module.
Remember, the cheating module changed the game's system for cheating sentiments, making it so that Sim don't get the same sentiment from witnessing WooHoo or witnessing flirting.
Now, I have further developed this system, as I have found more things in the game that in my opinion needed tweaking. Details below.
A. Expanding Sentiment situations. The vanilla game does not give cheating sentiments to Sims if the Sim cheating is doing it with a boyfriend / girlfriend / spouse, because of the technical conundrum that is the jealousy system of the game. It took me till now to figure that out since I was doing all my tests between married couples. The mod now changes the vanilla game behavior, so if a Sim has two girlfriends in secret and one catches him with the other, they'll be able to get the cheating sentiments - and the cheating-related interactions.
B. Expanding who can get a sentiment from witnessing kissing and flirting - therefore expanding who gets interactions from the cheating module.
In the vanilla game, Sims who are Soulmates but NOT gf / bf / spouse seeing their soulmate flirt / kiss another will not get a sentiment. Now they will get a minor, short cheating sentiment.
In the vanilla game, Sims who are under the Soulmate level but have a positive romance bar, and are not married, may get no sentiment from witnessing flirting. Now they can get a minor, short cheating sentiment.
Sims between 30 and 50 romance still have a good chance of not getting a cheating sentiment upon witnessing flirting as they just don't care enough for that.
C. Changed duration of cheating sentiments. I left the game ones alone - but shortened the 'flirting' one from my cheating module, as well as the 'kissing' one (longer that the 'flirting' one still). Both of those are shorter than the game's cheating sentiments. This makes sense to me because the faults are different levels of betrayal.
- Added an option to get birth control directly from the sim menu, since too many people skipped reading the mod instructions and therefore couldn't figure out that it's in the Computer 'order' menu ;)
- Fixed issue of paternity leave not showing (Jan. 2)
A NOTE about the WHW cheating module:
- Some users are having cheating confessions not work properly, ie, not give the reactions / relationship loss / Pop-up windows & Sentiments. This is utterly mysterious to me. For all testers and myself, everything works perfectly all of the time, no exceptions.
Until enough people who have that issue provide me with enough details that something starts to make sense, I don't know what to tell them other than, turn off pop-ups for that household, then it works, but then your sims might just decide to divorce, so. The mod is built properly, so, I don't understand this so far. Please provide info if it happens in your game.
Best,
Lumpinou

Ah ah, files say 'do not delete' for good reasons! Never delete those unless you're fully removing the mod of course :) Have fun

2021-01-09 15:07:22 +0000 UTCLumpinou! I solved it by myself. The error appeared to me because I removed the "donotDelete" package to replace it with the italian translation package file that I made by myself. I realized I just had to add the translation package and do not delete others and everything works. :)

2021-01-09 10:07:07 +0000 UTCI've seen this error before about outdated traits, of which I have none as I don't do cas traits
Lumpinou
2021-01-09 00:06:22 +0000 UTCOK, when does the error happen? Also, my mod in itself doesn't do that, but there might be a conflict. What other mods do you have? Also no worries by the way mccc is working perfectly fine, it's just doing its job to report game errors.
Lumpinou
2021-01-09 00:05:34 +0000 UTCsend you an email :)
Anna Paola Amoroso
2021-01-08 23:56:36 +0000 UTCWhat error shows up? You would need to send me the error log. You can do that via email at lumpinoumods@gmail.com or on discord

2021-01-08 23:49:56 +0000 UTCHi Lumpinou! First of all thanks for this amazing mod. I love it! I have a problem with this mod and MCC. When I take off your mod, mc comand works perfectly, but if i add your mode inside mod folder, in the game a log file problem with mc comand shows up. Can you help me?
Anna Paola Amoroso
2021-01-08 23:49:06 +0000 UTCOK, gotcha !
Lumpinou
2021-01-07 01:28:57 +0000 UTCthe mod worked same as in the videos when i did it
Alyssa Medina
2021-01-07 01:24:02 +0000 UTCThe teens needed to hookup in bed through the romance interaction. Instead of woohooing by pressing a bed or shower or closet
Alyssa Medina
2021-01-07 01:23:44 +0000 UTCHow do you mean?
Lumpinou
2021-01-07 00:28:57 +0000 UTCGot it! Thank you.
Alyssa Medina
2021-01-07 00:25:40 +0000 UTCThat's odd because that's not how the mod is set up, it makes no difference between teens or adults in terms of relationship requirements. Maybe they did a different interaction in the meantime and it's not the married thing that counted but the interaction. That's why I'm asking, what interaction was it? Mess around? Because there's no regular in game Woohoo for teens. So was that a mod thing instead
Lumpinou
2021-01-07 00:14:51 +0000 UTCThe teen sims are boyfriend and girlfriend. I did exactly what i did with the young adult sims as teens and it only registers it as flirting. It was regular in game woohoo. The teens need to be married in order for it to register as cheating and not just flirting
Alyssa Medina
2021-01-07 00:05:10 +0000 UTCIf they don't it may have to do with what interaction for Woohoo they used. Which was it?
Lumpinou
2021-01-06 23:54:18 +0000 UTCAre the teens boyfriend / girlfriend? It's not blocked for teens at all. They should see it...
Lumpinou
2021-01-06 23:53:22 +0000 UTCI found the issue. The "confess to cheating is only for Young adult sims and older. Not teens.
Alyssa Medina
2021-01-06 23:51:15 +0000 UTCThe old cheating module from Contextual Social interactions was deleted. The sim who cheated with another through woohoo cannot confess to it. Only flirting. Even when caught woohooing with another. They are in a relationship, boyfriend and girlfriend. They are teens. I watched the video and tried recreating it but thenoptions just dont show up. i will try it with young adult sims to see.
Alyssa Medina
2021-01-06 22:15:39 +0000 UTCSorry, forgot the link https://lumpinoumods.com/2020/12/26/woohoo-wellness-pregnancy-overhaul-module-7/
Lumpinou
2021-01-06 21:47:14 +0000 UTCYou deleted the old cheating module from Contextual Social Interactions yes? OK, so, what did the sim cheated on witnessed, if anything ? And the sim who slept with another (with Woohoo, not WW stuff) and did so after installing the module can't confess? What's the relationship between the main couple? I'd recommend looking at the module description and watching the two 2 minute videos that show what options should be popping up so that you know what's my mod and what isn't
Lumpinou
2021-01-06 21:47:00 +0000 UTCThe sims did woohoo with another. And thats so weird.. so there isnt any “confess to flirting”? Thats the only option im given. I do have the “Confess to loving another” option with the sims that was woohoo’d with when cheating. The only sentiment given is to the sim that was cheated on, and its also about flirting. Same with the moodlets, only to the sim that was cheated on. The sim that cheated doesnt register any of those interactions, no moodlets, no relationship change, no sentiments.. My game version is 1.69.59.1020. I have many mods, Contextualsocial interactions, realisticreactions, chem system, wonderfulwhims, slice of life, openlovelife, road to romance, realistic life and pregnancy.. I also have no old files.
Alyssa Medina
2021-01-06 20:44:43 +0000 UTCIt works perfectly for all of my testers and myself, all the time. Which tells me the mod is built as it should be. There may be another mod interfering or a strange problem linked to some factor yet not identified and therefore not yet solved. Did the sims Woohoo with another or not? Confess to cheating is for Woohoo. There's no 'confess to flirting' in fact. There's 'confess to loving another' which is if there was no Woohoo but romance is high. It should give sentiments to the three Sims involved from the perspective of the sim told about it and moodlets and whatnot. Please let me know your game version, other mods, and check that you have no old files. This is weird....
Lumpinou
2021-01-06 18:13:32 +0000 UTCUnfortunately, the cheating module still isnt working as it should. I turned pop ups off and still no pop ups or any moodlets for the sim who cheated.. They only can confess to flirting and then they go back to being friends like nothing happened. Is the cheating module pop ups only for Young adult sims and older?
Alyssa Medina
2021-01-06 15:53:40 +0000 UTCIt oddly doesnt give me that option. I have WWhims and MCCC installed. Could that be why?
Qituwra Muhammad
2021-01-06 15:42:21 +0000 UTCIn Woohoo Wellness? There is. Click your pregnant sim, look in 'pregnancy and family', there the termination of pregnancy there. They can also ask others to accompany them. If you can't find it write again and we'll troubleshoot
Lumpinou
2021-01-06 12:56:15 +0000 UTCAm I going crazy or is there no way to terminate the pregnancy?
Qituwra Muhammad
2021-01-06 06:26:43 +0000 UTCNo, contextual Social Interactions is still fine and it's own thing, HOWEVER the optional cheating module it used to have is what needs to be removed if you have it
Lumpinou
2021-01-06 03:39:42 +0000 UTCso in order to use the new cheating module i should delete contextualsocialinteractionsv1?
2021-01-06 03:38:56 +0000 UTCSide partner is available if the Sims are in an exclusive official relationship (SO or married) and one of them has at least a tiny bit of romance with someone else, most likely secretly
Lumpinou
2021-01-04 13:29:23 +0000 UTCSo far the Open Love Life update doesn't seem to be causing problems (that I had before). Just a question though- I don't see any prompts for the side relationship option - just the three person couple option (under the relationship structure tab). Not sure if I am missing something!

2021-01-04 13:08:26 +0000 UTCHappy New Year!! Stay safe, sane and sexy, everyone!!
2021-01-04 03:57:04 +0000 UTCThank you very much!
Ferdinand
2021-01-03 03:14:41 +0000 UTCThey should be solidly compatible. You should be fine with both
Lumpinou
2021-01-03 01:50:30 +0000 UTCSo how compatible/incompatible with Zero's IR-Cheating module is yours? Should I choose which one to use?
Ferdinand
2021-01-03 01:49:55 +0000 UTCYes, that is correct :)
Lumpinou
2021-01-01 23:33:11 +0000 UTCSo if we have the Simler90 file we would download just the compatibility file right?

2021-01-01 22:53:47 +0000 UTCHappy New Year! Hope 2021 is a much better year
RayleenB
2021-01-01 20:05:25 +0000 UTCIt's to accommodate an override mod by simler90 that changes acceptance / refusal rates for romance interactions. Open Love Life uses the same file to make non exclusive Sims more likely to accept romance even if in a couple and vice versa for other preferences. So those two would conflict. For those that have the Simler90 mod they must get the compatibility version, where I basically remove my alterations.
Lumpinou
2021-01-01 18:16:48 +0000 UTCWhat is the Simler90 compatibility? I don't think I have that installed on my game, since I dont' know what it is.. so just curious.
